Dear 11th and 12th grade parents,
Due to mounting concern about instruction in Dr. Gudis’ Biology and Physiology courses, we have decided to move forward and assign a more appropriate teacher for those courses. This decision was made after careful deliberation and observation. We are committed to providing students with the highest level of instruction possible. We are also committed to supporting our wonderful faculty, and the type of teaching that meets the unique vision of our Science department, and the school at large.
Despite this news, I am pleased to announce that we have hired Sean Kangataran to teach Biology and Physiology. Mr. Kangataran, who hails from Ireland, studied and lectured at the National University of Ireland (NUI), where he received a 1st class Honors degree in Anatomy. Mr. Kangataran has extensive experience teaching throughout the sciences, including, medicine, nursing, science, biomedical science, biomedical engineering and others. His references at NUI noted his superior teaching skills, a fact that was borne out in his guest lesson, and my conversations with him.
Mr. Kangataran will be starting tomorrow.
I regret and apologize for any distress this transition has caused. However, I am confident that the plan we have arranged will be the best one for your child, and the school going forward. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Roy Danovitch
Acting Principal, General Studies
